NCPD/Max-tac files: Izuku Midoriya

The Painful Truth

somewhere underneath Nightcity 

in the drainage system...as the water was being filtered...it bursts upward as both Izuku and Kendo gasped for air...swimming  to the side and he goes over the railing...he helps kendo over...as the two of them area drenched...he takes his coat off...and he starts taking out a smal capsule...he sits by her 
Izuku "You alright?" breathing heavily she rubs her arm 
Kendo: "yes...They wanted you" 
Izuku: "...i know" 
Kendo: "why" 
Izuku: "Itsuka i don't think-" 
Kendo: "Izuku...i know we had a talk...about how i would take things slowly regarding your past...but this is bigger than that...as they sit there exhausted from what just happened...Izuku was taking a moment 
Kendo: "why...izumi would use Soulkiller...why they wanted to capture you...how you know what to do to combat against the cyberwares...in ways that even the most skillful netrunner would have a hard time countering...killing one of the top pro heroes in the world.
Izuku: "..." 
Kendo: "..." waiting for his response...she knows that look...looking at the ground...fiddling with his gun...as he clears the water...as he looked...afraid
Izuku: "I..." he tried to say something...but he doesn't know how she'll take this...he never thought he would get to this point...he doesn't want to lose her...
Izuku: "If I tell you...I'm afraid...t...that" 
Kendo: "..." as she was concern...trying to reassure him...giving him time to talk 
Izuku: "I guess that's the main risk factor...if i can't trust you with secrets...I'm no better than your ex...alright...*phew*" 
Kendo: "It's alright...it won't change my love for you...remember?...that i would never leave your side" 
Izuku: "..." nodding...
kendo: "then it also means...through your toughest moments...if you fall apart...fall apart...for i'll be there to hold you together...not as the max-tac cop...not as Johnny...but as Izuku...I'll hold you...just like as you held me" 
Izuku: "...shit" as his voice started to quiver...he was close to breaking down...trying to keep it together...he felt her hug him...her arms wrapped around him tightly...he just let it loose...
Izuku: "So much shit has happened...so much things you've never known Itsuka...

Izuku: "back when i used to be...innocent...i was just a child...living in a household in japan...Mustafa...I've always remembered that place...My father bought that house so he could live there when he was done with his work...but...something else that we had no control over occured" 
Kendo: "..." 
Izuku: "he died...from what i don't know...some said it was a plane crash...others say it was during a gang attack...who knows...who fucking cares...all that mattered to me...was the fact that he was dead...I barely have any memories of him...but the one I kept close to my heart...I never forgot 
Flashback 
as a three year old Izuku was playing around...running in the house...he runs into his father 
HIsashi: "hmhmhm...come here" 
Izuku: "dada!" cooing at him...as he was happy to lifted up 
Hisashi: "wow look at you...you've grown up so much already hehe." 
Izuku: ".dad...hero" 
Hisashi: "yes...I am a hero son" as he smiles sadly at him...holding him close 
Izuku: "mm...mm" as he clings on to his leather jacket..the one he  would never change out despite it being faded...and minor cracks...but it showed that he was a never going to let something push him down...
Hisashi: "remember...anyone can be a hero...even you...quirkless...or not...no one is worthless...alright?" Izuku not knowing what he's talking about..just nods 
Hisashi chuckles: "either way..keep your heart pure son...one day...you will always...be...my little dragonling" putting him down...as he walks towards the door 
Izuku: "dada!" crying out for him...he didn't want to look...and he leaves 
Flashback ends 
Izuku: "When i finally heard about his apparent death...It stuck with me this whole time...my mother was married to someone else by then...I was a constant reminder of what she used to have...a reminder of the past...she married Toshinori Yagi...or All might you guys called him...they had a daughter...i couldn't move on...I couldn't accept him as my father...as i got older...Izumi and her friends...for nearly eight years i have endured pain...they would use their quirks on me...beat me...trying to deter my dream of becoming a hero...and it worked...i stopped caring for it...even when I had accepted it...they didn't stop the torture...I'm pretty sure...they enjoyed beating me down." as Itsuka was horrified from this revelation...he was abused...horribly 
Kendo: "what did your parents do?!...nothing?" 
Izuku nods: "Izumis father thought i was trying to be independent...I almost never ate...I lived off of whatever i could try and find...they would leave me during trips...weather it was on purpose or not...i don't know...my mother would purposely ignore...she would always pay attention to Izumi...when i wanted help..she wasn't there...when i was hungry...she wouldn't answer...it just wasn't at home...my quirkless status was known through the school i went to...the places i would hangout...they would call me all types of vile shit...throwed rotten food at me when i would have lunch at school...the kids that bullied me...heh...i was just a punching bag...a practice dummy for their quirks...until i snapped...and did something i still have guilt over 
Flashback 
"DEKU HEY DEKU YOU LITTLE SHIT!!" as the kids would come again to bully him...he tried to hide under the bridge...as his bullies would drag him out and they stood around him...
"Wonder what we should do today hmm?" 
"what if we play villains and heroes." 
Izuku: "no...nonon please please i!" but they started to mock him...mocking his cries...his pleas for mercy...as they forced him to take his clothes off 
"GO ON YOU ANIMAL RUN RUN!!" as he started running away...they then gave chase...like some sick game...like...like he's nothing more than a waste of flesh...a waste of life...
Izuku: "no...nonononono!..LEAVE ME ALONE!!" as they get closer he grabs a rock...and he throws it at one of them...knocking him out...and the other...he gets a large branch to hit him in the head...as he would continue..they also cried out to him..telling him to stop...but he doesn't...as he would hit them with whatever he can find 
Flashback ends 
Izuku: "by the end of that day...they were dead..." looking ahead at the stream flowing...reliving all that trauma once more...the memories he tried to drown out in booze and alcohol...the reason he was so cold to someone...
Izuku: "Of course...shit just doesn't end there...when the police were called about three boys dead at a stream...i panicked...and i ran away from home...threw my clothes..and some items into the ocean...left a note there...made seem like i off'd myself...come here to nightcity.. having paranoia of my past catching up with me...until i changed my name to Johnny...entered the NCPD police academy...but I managed to push my way through to become Night city's first quirkless Max-tac officer...and as a sergeant...I fell in love...Evelyn...we met under...bad conditions...but...we managed to work it out...until...she died...it felt like the world was trying to push me down once more...how i killed this rouge gang going into the Shield tower...the very people who took something important from me...Adam smasher is a living reminder of that" 
Kendo: "smasher?...but he was built in I-Islands...how did-" then she stops...she realize what he meant 
Izuku: "Again..i've been reluctant on telling this detail in the story...but i had a hobby of analyzing and writing down everyones quirks..what they could do with it...how they could utilize its fullest potential...but...I also wrote something else in it." taking his phone out...yes it's waterproof...as he brings up a picture...he hands it to her...and it was a picture of a notebook...and on it was a picture of a crude drawing...of a mantis blade...showing numbers and all kinds of measurements...detailed in every way possible...but...she noticed the date...it was long before the age of cyberware...long before...shield made their first...breakthrough of technology.
Izuku: "A constant reminder...seeing...the work that i made...the blueprints i've drawn...and long thought out...I...I was the one who had created the first cyberware Itsuka Kendo...that's why I can point out almost any flaw in the design...countering any cyberware...even new ones...for i was the one who built the foundation...while others take credit for the work that I did." 
Kendo: "..." she was just shocked...all of this...the cyberware in everyone..the one in her body..the tech that everyone became the norm...and made a breakthrough in the technological advances...it...it was from this Man in front of her...a quirkless...A tortured soul...living proof...that you don't need a quirk...to do something great 
Izuku: "now that you know the truth...I suspect you have questions...like...why I didn't want to take credit...or...try to take back my work...I just...Gave up...I knew that no matter what i did..it wouldn't work out the way i want it to...it's been perverted into something i never intended for...but it did...the mantis blade concept..i was going to use on myself...i had ideas...how to create it...i planned on being hero this way...but again...I just abandoned that dream by then...i brought a notebook...i'm sure it's still at Vics place...but it contained something else...formulas...blueprints...and a lot more designs for weapons...and...the secret...behind the regenerating tissues i have" 
Kendo: "oh my god" she had tears coming out...
Izuku: "Most people...I thought were my friends back then...the way i acted...they couldn't even stand to be in the same room with me...i pushed everyone away...teal saw through my facade...he never took my attitude to heart..or seriously...same with Rivers...they weren't friends...they just...pitied me...everyone else...you...even you had that...and...now your fucking closest to me by a long shot...besides eve." 
Kendo just hugged him tighter...as he lets everything out to her...she never realized how horrible one could go through...he was tortured...abused his whole life...shunned for something he lacked...created something that could've made him feel accepted...only to have it stolen...taken away from him and then use it for their own gain...losing someone you love so dearly...and had no real friends to begin with...no one to care for but those that took him in...
Izuku: "i must sound pathetic" hearing his voice break...as he was just...sad...and he has every right to be...
Kendo: "shh...no matter what Izuku...even after all of this...it makes me more determined...to ensure justice will be given to those who wronged you...even if everyone leaves you...I won't...I won't go...I love you." 
Izuku: "...say it again" 
Kendo: "I love you...I love you" as he continues to cry...he clings on to her...for he could finally let his hate..his anger...his guilt...just release..because he's not alone anymore...he finally has someone to rely on..someone..to hold him when he is at his most vulnerable...his weakest...he felt ashamed...yet...he felt more at ease with himself...less hate on himself.
Kendo: "even after our rough start Izuku...I knew that you never meant it...I..I'm just thankful...that you trust me with this information...we're going to take those bitches down...hero or not...it has to be done" 
Izuku: "..." as they sit there...listening to the water flow...it was soothing...his head resting on her chest...listening to her heartbeat...her warm arms caressing him softly...

he felt like he was reborn and felt stronger than ever.
